J.D. McClatchy on the Contrast and Complementarity of Desire and Love – The Marginalian

“Love is the quality of attention we pay to things.”

J.D. McClatchy on the Contrast and Complementarity of Desire and Love – The Marginalian Every month, I spend hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars keeping The Marginalian going. For two decades, it has remained free, ad-free, AI-free, fully human and alive thanks to patronage from readers. I have no staff, no interns, not even an assistant — a thoroughly one-woman labor of love that is also my life and my livelihood. If it makes your own life more livable in any way, please consider aiding its sustenance with a one-time or loyal donation. Your support makes all the difference. MONTH
